Thanks Larry. One thing we have learned over the years is that CFL's football opinions seldom have any basis in facts. He is obviously averse to logic. Perhaps he should have chosen to attend a school with a Logic program vs. an engrg trade school.

Over the years have known a LOT of people that suffer from this same affliction of blind, unquestioning, unreasoning loyalty when it comes to their sports team(s). In their world, there is only 2 states of existence; this same level of blind loyalty and "haters"

It is very odd to me and has been repeatedly shown to be often ultimately detrimental to the growth of the very thing they are so very loyal to

I grew up a Gator fan, and went to UF (class of '76). It is amazing to hear all the newbies talking about the Gator's "proud tradition". I remember that tradition, and it was nothing to be proud of. We always, ALWAYS, lost the big game, just when it appeared to be "our season". Our proud tradition began with, and so far has only included, Steve Spurrier's tenure. (Urban Meyer fielded great teams that, with exceptions, seemed to be largely comprised of miscreants and never seemed to embrace the University or its fans.) Too many Gator fans, esp the young ones, are arrogant and entitled. (I went to Spurrier's last game vs. Md in the Orange Bowl, when UF should have been playing for the NC in Pasadena. However, once again, they had lost their last game, this time to UT, not UGa. The UF kids were ragging on the Md kids, and not in a fun way. Finally the Md kids had enough and one said, "Hey, you can't ruin my night. We were picked to be last in the ACC and here we are in the Orange Bowl. Where were you supposed to be??!!" A GREAT putdown.) Too many of our fans feel entitled and think we should be playing for an SEC and national championship every year. Knowing our history, I am grateful for success when it is achieved, but, temper it with the knowledge that it is fleeting. I think UM, F$U and UCF should adopt a similar outlook - gratitude and appreciation for the relatively few successes we enjoy. And, no, UCF does not have Natl Championship. Congratulations on a perfect season, but, they need to accept facts and get over themselves.

Every time you write, you buttress my point.

It is amazing, isn't it!!

That is truly weak. To quote -
"Beginning in 2014, the College Football
Playoff was used to determine national champions in FBS. All "major selectors" not otherwise listed also selected the CFP champion as its highest ranked team in those seasons. In years where a "major selector" had a team
other than the CFP champion as highest
ranked team in its final poll that team is listed
below the CFP Champion."

It does not say they won a Natl Championship, just that someone somewhere had them ranked as no. 1. Again, you really should change your nom-de-plume to "One Note".

Bowden is a class act.

He was a cheater and hypocrite. Two words - "Polish Rules". How can someone who condones a player who is using Rufies to get over on incapacitated girls be a "class act"? Perhaps you don't have a daughter. I have two. Or how about four others - "Echo of the whistle"? He admitted, repeatedly, to teaching his players to hit after the whistle. Cheater and hypocrite.

did they get you to trade.... Your heroes for ghosts?

OUCH!
